Can I move the Adobe and the Lightroom folders that were automatically created in "pictures" to the "documents" folder without creating any problems for Lightroom?
Actually, now that I think about it, I'm not sure if lightroom or PS Elements created the Adobe folder. But does anyone know if I can move it too? I just get tired of looking at them when I open the Pictures folder. Maybe silly, but....
 
You can definitely move the Lightroom folder.

The effects will depend on what's in there. If it's just the catalog, and the preview cache, the only confusion will be opening catalogs from Lr's MRU (most recently used) list, because they won't be where Lr left them.

If your actual images are rooted there as well, then you'll have the missing images syndrome to deal with, which is usually fixed with just a right click and a pointer to where they've been moved to.
 
Ok, thanks. I thought I could, just wanted to check first.
